[@YakMadrid1]

I live in NYC. You cannot imagine how much I miss Spanish food markets. It is unhuman.

[@xdemgeo3581]

I love it whn you are both on camera and Yoly is so fun to watch, her energy is contagious!

[@vocalhero9326]

You are just the greatest!! 😀 Nobody more entertaining and loveable presenting food and presenting Spain!! I’m Miguel Barrios, my father is Spanish and my mother is German - I live in Germany and you always succeed in transporting me to my beloved Spain! Especially with the live tapas crawls during the pandemic.😀 Keep up the good work!

[@JanG_GC]

Always thrilled to see a new video on this channel and what a bonus, Yoli's back! 🥰 We missed you. Thank you both for all of them, you've enhanced my trips to Spain immeasurably. I've even started Spanish lessons recently so i can improve beyond my current 'menu Spanish' !😂

[@PedroGomes-zf6dk]

please continue this Madrid market tours ✌️

[@AngelaGarry]

Hi James and Yoly - I love this video! I've been watching your channel for a few years now and I genuinely think that it's one of the best food and travel-related channels, not just in terms of content, variety and information, but also fun. Too many KZbinrs spend their time trying to look and sound totally serious about things, or too hyper and "super excited" (as an English teacher I really want to inform them that this is not how to use the word "super") and it just doesn't work. You two clearly really enjoy what you do, and enjoy spending time together - you are fun and interesting to watch. And yes, James, you ARE both fascinating :-)

[@adrianramirez221]

this is my neighborhood market. Huge fan.

[@tedgalperalper1828]

I am at 81-year-old male that was born in Brooklyn and have been a fan of pastrami all of my life. There is a significant difference between Katz’s and a pastrami sandwich served with Havarti cheese. You do not get a cheese pastrami sandwich in Katz’s. You do get cheese with a Reuben sandwich and you also get Russian dressing. I imagine it’s whatever floats your boat. I now live and have lived in Palo Alto for the last 50 years. There is a pastrami desert here. I have to go to San Francisco or berserklyto get a decent pastrami sandwich

[@shinyshinythings]

Or Madrid! All it takes is a ticket from SFO to Barajas …

[@Afterflowers-v4k]

Bay Area native here and I’m super curious to hear your opinion on Saul’s in “Berserkly.” I have nothing to compare it to.

[@jamesrenner3988]

James - I repeat - you have married above your station - well done. WRT this video - than you for the shared experience. I love the Asian noodles segment!! I really appreciate that you have invited the world into your world and the experience that is Madrid. Machinimas gracias!

[@fredcookerly9385]

I'm not a fan of big cities, but the one thing I love is the variety and quality of food you can find. I am going to search out all of this the next time we pass through Madrid.

[@NiCDor]

I live nearby and I can tell this video makes justice! This market is really amazing

[@zazito34]

How fun it is, that this video appears in my feed, and this market is literally down my street where I live… Spain is the best Great video!!

[@HereBeBarr]

Ok, New Yorker chiming in here. That pastrami sandwich looks awesome, but can't really compare it to the classic New York version. They're re-grilling the meat, throwing on tons of other stuff/cheese. A classic jewish deli Pastrami after all it goes through is sliced, put on rye bread and has brown deli mustard. That's it. In this case you're eating something totally different, a newer evolved Spanish/NYC hybrid. Looks fantastic though ;)

[@spainrevealed]

Yeah you’re right, perhaps this was cheating a bit 😂

[@kosatchevd]

A massive thank you for all your videos and your work in general! I enjoy your content so much, 'cause it's so cozy and informative, tasty and welcoming. Thank you again and keep doing your thing, James and Yoli!

[@tonydeltablues]

Great to see you both on your 'date' ;-) Hope you are well (and your daughter). As always, I love watching your content! Nice to see Madrid embracing a wide variety of food cultures. I will leave with an old Irish blessing: 'May your channel content be seen, appreciated, liked and subscribed by many - globally' ;-) Tony

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you Tony!

[@bkm2797]

I love markets like this, you can make a day of it having great food and shopping for the freshest ingredient's to take home and maybe recreate something you tried at the market. Always great to see Yoli, your other half. She must be quite busy with Lucia, the two’s and three’s are very emotional shall we say😉. James, wonderful tour with some delicious dishes, thank you for taking us along.💕👍

[@RocchiG33]

Love Camilo Cesto music at spicy food stand 😂👍👍

[@marshac1479]

Time to go back to España 😋😋😋

[@raula.3693]

🤣🤣🤣 You are wellcome.

[@JulianNS]

Te esperamos 👐🏻😊

[@swissfoodie3542]

This market looks amazing, and it alone is a reason for me to go back to Madrid soon. I have only watched the first place in your video yet, and its bringing back good memories, from many years ago, where I had empanadas for the first time (when I was learning spanisch in Madrid). I look forward to enjoy more food online. Thanks James and Yoly.

[@swissfoodie3542]

Am I wrong, or is this market not featured in your wonderful Madrid food guide book ?

[@spainrevealed]

Yep it’s in there :)

[@spainrevealed]

Our pleasure!

[@kentbyron7608]

I've watched so many of your videos for our trip to Spain and I've got to celebrate here how remarkable a couple you both are on camera, what amazing chemistry with each other! What a team! So happy I SUBSCRIBE to your channel. ❤Thumbs up! Brilliant!❤

[@virginiafeliciano9318]

Oh I wish I knew about this market when I went to Madrid but now I know for next time. Nice to see you guys enjoying your date. 😊

[@kii1985]

I love watching your videos. The two of you are so fun to watch. Stay blessed ¡Viva España! 🇪🇸

[@rosac9475]

¡Me encantan vuestros vídeos! Soy española y siempre descubro cosas nuevas gracias a vosotros. No sé si tenéis algún vídeo sobre Valladolid, pero es una ciudad que recomiendo muchísimo, especialmente por su oferta gastronómica, tanto en restaurantes como el ir de vinos con pinchos muy elaborados y muy ricos. Otra ciudad que os sugeriría explorar es León, famosa por su tradición de que en los bares siempre ponen con cualquier bebida, un pincho. Conozco bastante bien ambas ciudades, pero estoy segura de que conseguiríais que descubriera sitios nuevos y sorprendentes. ¡Gracias por vuestro trabajo!

[@ElComentarioIrreverente]

Congratulations to Yoli, which survived her ROMANTIC DATE❤after many bottles of Albariño🍷OLE💯

[@EBraz]

I started watching videos about Spain after finding out im part spanish, lmao. My Great Grandfather was spanish. My grandfather is 50% and my father is 25%. I barely have any spanish blood but its still fun to learn about new cultures.

[@battiekoda]

Lol! I'm not Spanish, by blood, at all... But I was born there! I love learning new things about my birthplace, (mostly the foodstuffs) 😅

[@EBraz]

@battiekoda food is the universal language that brings people together :).

[@andrewmeasures2312]

Great to see you both out enjoying yourselves. Your enthusiasm and genuine approach are contagious. Thank you. 😀👍

[@spainrevealed]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@iggieminana8371]

Love Nino bravo at the 6 minute mark!

[@richmck007]

My claim to fame, I lived in his building! Saw his show recently on his life. Never knew he was so popular. Sad tragic ending. Libre!

[@ismaelgx]

And also Camilo Sesto!!!

[@killianmmmoore]

Guys yall and pasta grammar are the best duo culture couples on KZbin to share epic food points to visit and recipes ❤

[@GorillaSoundz]

Great, now I am hungry!

[@randyschwaggins]

My best food experiences have largely been in Spain... that isn't to say i haven't eaten great food in many other countries...but the originality and execution of food - from Spain and from all over world - that I have eaten in various Spanish cities is extraordinary. I've had steak like no other in Madrid and Malaga...Sushi in Malaga that that was on par with anything in London or New York...Indian food in Madrid that was the best I've eaten...Chinese food in Madrid and San Sebastian that was unbelievable. And that's not even talking about the tapas and seafood I've had in Seville and Malaga or the extraordinary pintxos I've eaten in San Sebastian and Bilbao...or the Michelin 3 star restaurants in San Sebastian and Madrid that are the best example of that type of food I have ever eaten. Spain is - imo - the best food country in the world...the only thing it lacks (or i havent seen) is top quality Malaysian, Thai or Vietnamese cuisine.

[@perryden7906]

You’d be surprised by Bambu box in Madrid! Very authentic Thai food according to me. Yothai is also a good option with Thai staff and chefs.

[@shinyshinythings]

I bet if you can find good Thai food anywhere, it’s San Sebastián. Every morsel I ate there was fantastic.

[@elsafischer3247]

All the food looks delicious. Thank you greetings from Switzerland

[@vanmurphy26]

Just reminded me I need to get some more of Gloria's empanadas. So so tasty! Always happy when we get one of the two tables as well!

[@alexanderfuller8896]

Great vid! Love the usual showcasing on traditional Spanish cuisine, but think it's really good to highlight the international variety and options available as well!

[@robertpadron4533]

Yoli is the best color commentator 😊 so glad to see your back!

[@Cocoandindy]

I'm arriving in Madrid this Wednesday, so thanks for the video.

[@bigfiretogetherforever5047]

You two are too cute and I love food from Spain. Spain has been making some really good genre films as well as S Korea and I always look forward too anything from Spain.

[@johnengooyen]

I'll be in Madrid next weekend! Great timing of this video. I can't wait to try all of these!

[@asuntosvarios7456]

Cuando venga a Madrid no olvide pasarse una tarde por el Valle de los Caídos. Es un lugar impresionante.

[@EverythingEmpire]

Katz was amazing! Not dry whatsoever. Tender melt in your mouth goodness

[@makiliv]

Enjoyed the variety at the Mercado, and so wonderful to see Yoly again!

[@SamuelLeclerc-u4o]

I absolutely love James Revealed! ❤

[@michaelfelsinger-k2i]

Thank you so much for this beautiful video ! What would we do without the two of you ? One of the very best channels on You Tube, which offers much more than delectable food and Dionysian beverages ! If I could travel again, I would definitely book a tour with you guys. I would just stick to one Spanish city and get to know it as you show me around. I'm very sad that I can't do this anymore due to losing most of my eyesight from the Astra Zeneca vaccine. I would love to go to that old restaurant where the 90 year old owner still serves his customers. I saw it on your channel, James, and on Mark Weins channel. Still, your videos are a great consolation. My heartfelt thanks to you both !

[@spainrevealed]

Thank you!

[@Haupialani]

I have so many places to go now when I go to Madrid next April or October (still need to research the weather). I'll also go to one of your tapas and churros recommendations.

[@TeresitaLiubertas]

I love all vlogs james especially with your wife yollie.all your video are all interesting and very helpful.a from down under.

[@hecdc305]

Looks like I'm going to add an extra day on my next trip to Madrid in May. Thanks for the video, it was delicious.

[@paulnipper]

Another great video Stu and a very honest and well done review. Really like the way these are put together and the places you go to

[@shinyshinythings]

This is James (and Yoly), Stu is another channel! 😅 But yes James and Yoly make great videos, they are very talented people with good hearts.

[@pattheslut]

​@@shinyshinythings Stu's food and restaurant reviews are great as well

[@isashax]

I always am hungry when I watch your videos! I want those artichockes!

[@bluedrummajor2876]

I would like to see a second visit to the markets you shopped at during Covid. I thought those places were so fascinating. I hope that they are all doing well.

[@SINGFIN1964]

I love you guys. Go on more dates like this. I love it.Lovely food.

[@liezeldebruin5644]

I loved this video. Date night was an awesome idea!

[@Una_caña_por_favor]

Fantastic video guys. Love these types of places. Best of both worlds, so to speak. Now to find some accommodation in Chamberi.

[@spainrevealed]

Thanks guys. Yeah, Chamberi is a cool neighbourhood. But a popular one!

[@roberto8650]

Oh, amazing. I just left there and the algorithm brought this up on my recommendations.

[@mcc.o.4835]

The food looks incredible!!!

[@lynnestewart7060]

Great video and good to see you both on camera again

[@manuelrodriguez4743]

Loved the episode. Nice market and delicious food. I just don’t agree with the pastrami, because KATZ’S DELI is the king 👑 🌎🏆🥇👌🏼

[@SeanMCannon]

I love that they added some San Francisco USA in with the fortune cookie! I will certainly check out this market!

[@christinecleavest9099]

I love that mercado and definitely where I go to for my spice and pastrami fix. Great video. p.s. As a Native NYer, Katz´s is amazing...pure blasphemy you say...jajajaja

[@victorlui5955]

Salud Espania!!!

[@jasongray4517]

Wonderful to see the resurrection of this market. We must not allow such places to die. The supermarkets can not be allowed to always get their own way.

[@curious1264]

By far the best food video, love the wider and more international selections

[@Nothin2see_]

Looks so good. All the good food seems to be en el centro. Dios. Looks like my family and I have plans next weekend lmao. Edit: we ended going to 9 lives. An American pie place near the market so for dinner we stopped at the market to eat dinner. Craft 19 didn't disappoint and Kitchen 154 had the longest line so we'll go next time. We tried Mila&Co and that was so good. Definitely recommended them as well. Thanks James and Yoly. This video came at the perfect time.

[@padders1068]

James and Yoly, thanks for sharing all the food looked amazing. I'm guessing there are enough food stalls there to make a complete series? If yes I'd love to follow along with you! Much ❤ to you both and your daughter!

[@elizabethzapac3203]

Another FABULOUS VIDEO!!

[@hayleyelliott7905]

Hi James, I love the video. Can you do a 'what we eat in a day or week'.❤

[@marcfg21]

The chips you ate in the Xianese bar, in China they use that seasoning but instead of potatoes, they do it with lotus.

[@LisaHarerdeCalvo]

We love your video content in general, and I agree that it is great to see Yoli once again. After seeing this one we gave the pastrami place a try today. I have to say that while the food was decent, the pastrami was really dry, and no one makes a reuben (or New York Pastrami, as they call it) on that bread. It's rye bread or nothing. My husband had a cheddar and bacon burger that was so salty it was barely edible. Maybe we went on an off day? The sauce they served with the aperitivo was the best thing on the table. Also, pretty pricey for 2 sandwiches and 2 drinks, in comparison to the rest of Madrid. We may go back to the Korean because passing by it looked and smelled amazing.

[@spainrevealed]

Sorry you had that experience. Before our visit, I had read a few reviews that talked about the pastrami being dry but ours wasn’t at all. The sandwich was very juicy. Maybe an off day as you say

[@britslivinginspain]

We were really disappointed with Katz deli. That looked Epic!- next stay over in Madrid we're going! Thanks for sharing

[@estebangarcia1431]

me gusto este capítulo 😊, viajo pronto a Madri y creo que por allí estaré para ojalá sorprender el paladar!!

[@veronical803]

I went to this market on a Saturday for lunch in December 2024. Full of life and vendors but I have to say I was disappointed with the Empanadas stand of Gloria. The empanadas looked old it was actually the only stand that had no one eating at those tables. I ate at one called Campo grande? Great service and food was good (they had various types of steaks and for 4 euros they grill it there)

[@lonnyroot7833]

I can't believe you didn't even mention our favorite restaurant in this mercado, Tripea. You really need to try it.

[@spainrevealed]

Because it's Michelin, we couldn't get it. But yes, should have mentioned!

[@peter_bazinet]

We're heading for Italy in May 2025, but may head up to Madrid for a few days at the end of our vacation. We'll definitely check out this place. The food looks amazing.

[@spainrevealed]

You'll love it! From Friday to Sunday it's really busy -- more of a party vibe

[@khalidhameed4770]

Yoly is the star!!

[@terryrogers-kulick9499]

It was fun enjoying your 'date night' Yoly you are gracious and beautiful but James owes you a 'one on one' romantic one ... mean time keep doing these 🤩 love from NZ xx

[@appleblows1]

We love Spanish food and culture. No nonsense, non pretentious, fresh, easy to eat, affordable and D. E. licious. And also cava at anytime of the day or night.

[@martinquinn9007]

Its nice to.see yoly tried nrw food

[@anthonybanks6772]

The food in Barcelona is the best

[@dmitrygorelik4211]

Insulting Katz’s deli!!!

[@christopheran-traumer4377]

That second vendor is serving Korean fusion food, not Southeast Asian.

[@martinquinn9007]

Looks.so nice

[@xthen7699]

One word----Yummy!!!

[@katniss4670]

The food looks amazing , but for Madrid those prices are closer to fine dining than food hall .

[@ArtFreeman]

Hot Ones in Spain. This is fantastic.

[@kipervarg]

New Yorker here. Grew up with Pastrami. Have been around the globe eating lots of tasty things. Love this channel. Having some European guy telling me how some random tiny tapas place in Madrid serving a modern take on a classis Pastrami blows Katz out of the waters is crazy. I mean, you would have to have tried Katz's a bunch of times and maybe even grown up in an Italian or Jewish household in NYC to even know how it should taste, but OK, you go for it dude.

[@pattheslut]

James is a Kiwi,I.e,from New Zealand originally.

[@pattheslut]

And the owner of the deli is an expat New Yorker.

[@patmuller4461]

Thanks for adding a vegan dish to what you tried.

[@artmann7684]

Great to see you finally ventured out beyond Spanish cuisine, something I've recommended to you for several years. We've been to the original Bian Biang location several times as it's on our "go-to" list every time we're in Madrid. Now go to Mazal Bagel for what we feel might be the best bagel/lox sandwich even by NY standards.

[@christinecleavest9099]

love Mazal... I agree best bagels

[@artmann7684]

@ glad to see they’ve now opened a new location near Opera.

[@goldvideo]

Love love love Mazal Bagels. And Tamara (the owner from Philadelphia, where I'm from) is the best!

[@adriansalazar5044]

What time does the market open and close?

[@coffermartin77]

You both look and sound very happy. You should get drunk more often on camera!!😂

[@spainrevealed]

The crazy thing is, we didn't drink any alcohol haha
